What are Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Flaws?

Late Term Abortion - on demand.

Late Term Abortion honestly (tasteless or no) sounds like a great name for a cocktail.

only available for 20 minutes before closing.

xpost lol

+ all the time in december and april

again, what is up with the skin coloration on AOC here? I mean...that's not even a remote approximation.

I guess all non-European Americans are black?

That's almost Ronaldinho bottle opener-esque caricature

It's funny how Donald Trump thinks 'Let's hop a train to California' sounds bad.

To me, in London SE13, 'Let's hop a train to California' sounds impossibly romantic.

never hopped to Erith on a whim before? !

getting some flack for not sticking up for Ilhan Omar more - not sure if fair or not, not seen enough of whats been said

I often reflect on @AyannaPressley‘s words: “people closest to the pain should be closest to the power.”@IlhanMN is a Somali refugee. She has felt the ravages of war. Watching her question Trump’s envoy to VZ, who pled guilty to several Iran-Contra crimes, feels like justice. https://t.co/3mFv0lmAis

here's a pretty legit flaw: she makes gross conservatives really horny

― frogbs

lol this is also a positive though, people tend to show their hand when they're horny

yeah......hand....

I've been struck by her accent lately, or relative lack thereof, especially for a Bronx born Puerto Rican. She sounds kind of midwestern when she speaks.

Jesse Jackson weighs in

Love this:

Dr. Martin Luther King used to teach that “cowardice asks the question, is it expedient? And then expedience comes along and asks the question, is it politic? Vanity asks the question, is it popular? Conscience asks the question, is it right? There comes a time when one must take the position that is neither safe nor politic nor popular, but he must do it because conscience tells him it is right.”

imagine if AOC actually had this kind of power

I am surprised they didn't go full tilt and say "thanks for the abortion!"

#Socialism Takes Capitalism Creates

insert "amazon pullout" joke.

"Job Creators Network is a nonpartisan organization whose mission is to educate employees of Main Street America, so we can protect the 85 million people who depend on the success of small businesses.

JCN provides business leaders and entrepreneurs with the tools to become the voice of free enterprise in the media, in Congress, in state capitals, in their communities, and their workplaces—allowing them to hold politicians accountable to job creators and their employees.

We are the voice of Main Street."

I know it's a lost cause, but the way pro-HQ2 people frame the "loss" that NYC has experienced is literally deranged. There was some classic Slate piece the other day where this moran was raging about all the lost tax revenue the new workers would have paid to the state like someone had set actual bags of money on fire.

socialism sucks!!! also we should give Amazon $3,000,000,000 in handouts!!!!

xp I guess fake billboard memes are a small business now

i don't know why i'm always surprised at the ineptitude of rightwing campaigns like this. any conservative that knows what "AOC" refers to already hates her because that's their entire media bubble is telling them to do 24/7. any other new yorker that knows what "AOC" means is going to look at the words "job creators network" and barf. all the people that don't know what "AOC" refers to - the majority of people, i'd say - will think it refers to some company or something

and any doofus that takes that hashtag seriously will accidentally tweet #socialism, followed by the words "takes capitalism creates"

you sure did slay some libs!

Small Businesses In Defending Destroyer Of Small Businesses SHOCKAH!

Americans are obsessed with the potential of everything. It's easy to fall in love with things that don't yet exist.

xp: For the past 6 years, every time I turn on my desktop monitor the screen is filled with the letters AOC. I've had a bit of cognitive dissonance over the new use.

I use AOC almost every day too; I get a thrill of this other use.

I like her response to the billboard, she turns it around quite nicely

Few things effectively communicate the power we’ve built in fighting dark money & anti-worker policies like billionaire-funded groups blowing tons of cash on wack billboards (this one is funded by the Mercers).

(PS fact that it’s in Times Sq tells you this isn’t for/by NYers.) https://t.co/B4QTPi1r2k

xp: what is the old use?

she spelled whoa wrong in a tweet. huge flaw.

xpost: appellation d'origine contrôlée
in france it's how they basically regulate what products get the geographical designation camembert de normandie, bresse chicken, chablis, bourgogne etcetc.

but i think it's an acronym for a lot of things.

AOC and Ilhan were on his list.

A @gwupoe scoop: A LT in the US Coast Guard was arrested this week for drug and gun charges. It looked like a run of the mill case until the detention memo filed yesterday. He had a hit list, contacts with white supremacists, guns, and, again, was an Coastie assigned to HQ.

I openly mused to my wife two weeks ago whether or not she was going to be an assassination target, simply because she reminds me of RFK in her charisma.

yes that's why we can't tax the rich proportionally because when i win the lotto they ain't gonna take my money !

the temporarily embarrassed millionaire phenomenon is vastly overstated, I think. Has there ever been a time when taxing the rich wasn't polling well? That's why they always had to lie and pretend the estate taxes were going to soak you for selling your grandma's $85k house.

I know it's bad to make jokes about ass-assinations but someone on my fb was like "why was beto on that list? That's like wanting to ass-assinate the photocopy guy." LOL

the bigger question for me was Joe Scarborough but that made a lot more sense after remembering that Trump hates Morning Joe

stochastic terrorism in action

Scarborough has moved leftward in recent years, which for the rest of us who remember him in Congress means he's part of the loony center.

old now, but I liked this quick article
